Skinner & T'witch
Sat 17th April 2027 7:30pm
Drawing on music-hall and vaudeville traditions, Skinner & T’witch’s show combines comedy and satire with folk, flamenco and theatre-style songs. Their influences include Flanders and Swann, Jake Thackray, Noel Coward, Kurt Weill, Leonard Cohen, Bert Jansch, and the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band!’
Steve Skinner has a background in musical theatre, having managed a theatre company and toured the country with musical reviews as a professional songwriter, specialising in comedy and satire.
Sandra Twitchett (T’witch) has a classical training, but is a folk-rock chick at heart. She has an excellent ear for harmony singing, which contributes to the distinctive Skinner & T’witch sound.
Skinner & T’witch have released five albums; performed widely around the UK; and recently toured in both Australia and the US.
‘Skinner & T’witch are unique: there is nobody to compare them with. A pair of comic geniuses’. The Living Tradition
‘Some things just work. Skinner & T’witch are one of those things. An absolute must see.’ Lakefest
‘A wide variety of serious, humorous, thought-provoking, and folky songs. Hugely entertaining’. Boston Folk Club
